Some cars have two fuses for sidelights, left and right. Not sure about your model, but perhaps you have changed the wrong fuse.
Good luck

Not sure what you mean by tail light %26quot;front and back%26quot; if you mean tail lights at the bcak then check the earth wire.
If you mean back lights and front lights aren't working then check the connection at the switch.

Remove the bulb. Click on your headlights. Use a test light to probe the contacts. One contact is for the taillight %26amp; the other is the brake. If test light illuminates, then check the bulb. Place the one contact on the base of the bulb on the positive battery terminal. Place another piece of wire from the negative post on the battery %26amp; touch the lower side of the bulb. One side will illuminate brightly (brake) %26amp; the other dimmer (taillight). If both filaments of the bulb illuminate, then the bulb is OK.
Return to the light receptacle %26amp; check the ground wire for corrosion %26amp; continuity. Make sure it is pried out far enough to contact the case of the bulb. If OK, then check continuity with a multimeter. Set meter to the 惟 scale. Touch one probe the ground in the receptacle %26amp; the other to a good body ground. The meter should read %26quot;0%26quot;. If there is no reading hen there is a problem with the ground wire.

There are alot of reasons this could be happening. To better answer the question we need more information about the car etc. However I will presume it is an older car %26amp; depending on how old the car is the connections can become very poor. If the bulb fits into a carrier that is not very clean, or worse still rusty then chances are the electricity will not conduct through the rust %26amp; hence no light. You need to ensure all contact points are clean %26amp; rust free. You also need to check that the cables are connected properly including, as Dunrobin46 said, the earth. Once you have done this %26amp; you have proved that the bulb works (on a different light) %26amp; that there is power leaving the fuse carrier then things get messy. You will need to test for voltage at the bulb, test continuity betweeen the end of the cables etc etc. This is something I suggest you leave to an expert. Of course if the bulb attached to a PCB (Printed Circuit Board) you will need to ensure that all the connections into, on %26amp; out of the PCB are in good order. Again - expert! Good luck
Sounds like you have a bad ground.
I'd check all the cable connections and wires to see if any have snapped or broken. if so im sure you can get replacements from garages or scrapyards
have you checked the fuses are put back in the right place and right voltage, know it may sound crazy but it can be the problem when things still don't work, or they may be a faulty connection somewhere.
don't bother its a Rover, say no more
